While other chains are probably analysing data on how to better gouge the consumer, from their special mobile apps, bs points cards, and other precious bs customers have to suffer through lugging around & using just to get what they imagine to be decent value from where they shop... This store appears to be pricing their items based on an entirely different manner of some kind... perhaps just running a grocery store. Just compare say the same brand & volume for a tin of anchovies... $6 at S.O.F. (brutal) $4 at N.F. & S.S. (unless a different brand, for which S.S jacks an extra $1 over N.F. for the same kind... wtf?) vs... wait for it... $3! at S.V!

Both products -- brands of organic ketchup, and natural coconut water -- were first-time ever seen, or tried products. And based on experiences after buying and using -- a wonderfully-flavoured ketchup, and naturally-sweetened coconut water. For me, easily to rate both products with five stars, and happily do so.

Then starts questioning us on not purchasing other things in the area that we had nothing to do with. on our way to checkout she is following us talking to another lady calling us "pesky teenagers" then before we leave she stops us and again and berates us then watched us leave. The only saving this grace of this day was the lovely cashier. Carol needs to work on her people skills

I feel that Meridian sells service or is more focus on service than meat. Their service is…read moredefinitely top notch. The place is super clean and well organized. The staff are all wonderful. If you buy meat here, the butcher will take you to the counter and have the payment process there. I shop here quite frequent and have tried many different types of their meat already. I do find that they sometimes have really good deal if you sign up for their newsletter. There was this one time I was here shopping and I decided to grab my meat first and I told the butcher that I am going to do other shopping and will be back to pay. The other butcher saw the meat sitting at the cashier and put it back. When I went to pay, it was not there but the butcher apologized and didn't realize that I was going to come back. The butcher also gave me two free complementary pork chops. That was really nice of him. So it is better to do all your shopping first and save the meat visit last. I like this place and definitely will be back.

I really like this location.

Is that not illegal? It is a couple cents but with the amount of purchases a day, that is a lot money scammed. The cashier did not know how to void it so I was sent to the customer service and they mentioned it being only a couple of cents but ultimately refunsed me. Customer service didn't seem to care who is doing this so I suspect they were told by management to do this.

I would encourage management to talk to their staff, especially the young cashiers ( hate to be a curmudgeon ) that it likely would be best to halt their personal conversations while they are checking groceries.

Anyways I came here today because I wanted to buy some supplements as I'm a bit of a health nut so I was in the vitamin/supplement section plus I wanted to use my gift card for something as this woman who I guess was working in the vitamin/supplement section approached me saying "Can I help you with anything or are you just looking?" I just felt awkward because her tone of voice was not friendly and when I replied "No, thank you, I'm okay, with a smile" she didn't smile back, just had a grumpy, bitter look on her face. I kind of felt more like she was suspicious I was going to steal something and I was being racially profiled rather than someone genuinely wanting to assist me. The young cashier up at the front was very pleasant and friendly when I went to pay for my item at least.
